A friend introduced me to Tales of Vesperia and it ate my life. Fanfics resulted. Enjoy.

I have a tumblr for some reason, and an account with dreamwidth that has all of my stories, including a few drabbles that aren't posted here or on AO3. I've set up a linked table of contents on the dreamwidth profile page for easy navigation. My AO3 account contains the unabridged versions of a few things I have here as well as a few NSFW shorts.

Constructive criticism is welcome, though I would prefer it be in a PM rather than a comment to avoid spoilers.

I have a few different timelines that several of my fics fit into. I'm posting the timelines since I wrote a lot of College Town out of order. Anything underlined should definitely be read chronologically. The others from Convictions are best read in order, but prolly won't be too confusing on their own.

I'm adding a timeline for that metalhead!Yuri AU as well.

Convictions:Set in the canon universe, post game. May include spoilers for the game and the movie."The Things We Leave Behind”"Smile"“Conviction”“Kidding”“A Nice Change of Pace”"Surprise"“Letters Unsent”"Letters Unwritten"

College Town:A set of AU stories where Flynn and Yuri are in college (different colleges, btw) and share an apartment. Completely unrelated to the high school AU."Table for Two""First Time for Everything""Traditions""That Which Defines Us""Cooking Lessons""Night Out""Fight or Flight""Fever Dreams""Under the Covers""In Medias Res""Unintended Consequences"

Mix Tape:Okay, the reason this one is so scattered is because it wasn't supposed to be as long as it is. I've ended it three times already, but that hasn't really affected the addition of new stories. To make it a bit easier, read the sets in this order:"Forte""Counterpoint""Mix Tape""Bonus Tracks""???"

Bonus nonsense:"Nostalgia" was based off of the picture in this post.Challenge that inspired "Posy" and the one for its follow up, "Memento"This post contains the pic that inspired "The Sleep of the Just." I'd suggest reading it here rather than on tumblr, as I've corrected a few typos.

Please read the author's notes. They are usually important. Some of them will help explain what's going on in the stories. Thank you.

"It's amazing, sometimes, the things that humans can do". Natsume falls slowly and gently, starts holding out hope for a happy future. But he isn't the only one with special powers, and sometimes precious people get hurt. Natsume/Tanuma.

A year after Yuri's fall at Zaude, a broken world is putting itself back together and learning to adapt. Now it's Yuri's turn to confront his own mistakes, namely a decision he made in a haze of pain and pride. This time, though, mistakes have their prices and no one involved is getting off easy. Two-shot.

It's about growing up, mostly. Sometimes it's about love and sometimes it's about friendship. Sometimes it's about hockey. But sometimes it's about the difference between what's real and what's fake, between being a boy and being a man. Riku/Sora, Roxas

While Flynn knew that not everything Yuri had been through or done could be shared, he had still wished to provide what support he could, even if all that support amounted to was the quiet presence of a friend during a lonely, sleepless night. (Post-canon Fluri oneshot)

Yuri's mouth was hot and demanding and full of the sharp taste of alcohol. Perhaps that was his impetus for following Flynn into the restroom, for shoving him against the wall without warning, for kissing him so desperately out of the blue.

I received an anon prompt on tumblr to write a story for the title 'Devil's Advocate' and ended up with two distinct one shots: a canon universe story set post-game, and a modern AU. There are no explicit pairings in the canon story, but the AU is Fluri.

Clowns wove through the crowd like garish cartoon butterflies, honking their noses and waiving to the guests. Rising above the sea of circus-goers was a huge, red and gold striped tent that had been set up and hung with strings of lights. It lit up wonder in Yuri's face before he caught Flynn staring at him. (Fluri-ish one shot)

Although he'd traveled much of Terca Lumireis, Flynn had never had occasion to visit the Shaikos Ruins. There was a sort of beauty to them and a strange sense of stillness, of time slowed almost to a standstill. It felt like they could spend weeks there unchanged while the world outside continued right along. (Fluri oneshot)

It was a day for stories and the quiet peace of Estellise's companionship. It had been a long time since they had been able to steal away to the library to read and trade opinions and recommendations. Flynn was determined to make the most of it. (Friendship fic with light Fluri)

The mirror reflected a gym that had seen better days. There was a single boxing ring with a dingy blue mat and faded red posts. Three mismatched punching bags with fraying seams hung from the ceiling. The nearest one was in use by the young man Flynn had seen a moment ago, the one with his hair tied up in a ponytail. (Modern AU with a splash of magical realism. FlynnxYuri)

That was all the postcard said, just: 'Hey.' No comma to pause and turn it into the introduction of a letter. No period to end the thought. It was nothing but an impulse. Flynn was surprised it had ever even been sent. Modern AU.

Flynn could be incredibly needy when he got sick. The result of having grown up—at least for a while—with parents, Yuri supposed. He repressed a smile. Annoying as he could be, he'd never been able to deny Flynn anything when he was sick. He would probably wind up spending the rest of the day adding on and taking off blankets, fetching soup, and singing silly old children's songs.

Yuri glanced up at the sky. There were no stars to be seen from the city, but there was the moon. There was always the moon. It caught his eye far too easily, fascinating in the way the skeletal specimens of animals he'd seen in museums were: cold and bare, something long dead that hadn't been allowed to lay down and rest.

Flynn, a violinist and classical music student, finds himself stuck living with Yuri, the lead singer and guitarist of a metal band and possibly the most infuriating person Flynn has ever met. Based on a prompt from Hoskky on tumblr.

Sometimes, the things Yuri does really piss Flynn off. Sometimes, Yuri has reasons for doing those things, even if he won't explain his reasons. Flynn does the best he can with unspoken reasons and unvoiced explanations, but Yuri expects an awful lot from him, sometimes. From my College Town AU. Fluri

Yuri smiles even when things are tough. It confuses some people, but those who know him best realize it's his way of staying strong and of coping. No one really knows how badly he just wants to let himself fall apart, sometimes.

Two months ago, Yuri forced Flynn into making a tough decision. Now, confronted with how much has changed since he started on his path eleven years ago, Yuri faces the choices he's made and the effects those choices had on the people around him. Sequel to "Letters Unsent." Fluri.

"'Do you ever think it would be nice to have children' Flynn asked the question idly, mainly to have something else to say. Even so, the thought of Yuri with a pack of his own children to chase down was far too amusing." Set a few months after "Conviction." Fluri.

Yuri has problems, some more mundane than others, but he was making do until a childhood friend he'd never quite forgotten shows up out of the blue and turns out to be way sharper than he used to be, and something of a busybody to boot. Urban fantasy-ish AU. Fluri.

Flynn finds himself enamored with Yuri to the point of distraction and sets out to solve the problem and find himself a happy ending, but Yuri doesn't seem to agree that a happy ending is how the story is supposed to go. Set post-game. Fluri. T rating for language and some stuff later on, just in case.
